Ebola even worse than it seems. CBC News, The National

Suspected cases in DRC, Uganda and South Sudan is over 1,100 people. People are panicking. Frontline workers often don't have masks or gloves. Trump must be proud. Healthcare workers or caregivers are most at risk as they come in contact with bodily fluids which is the only way to get ebola.

Yesterday I saw the head of WHO being interviewed and he looked really uncomfortable when asked about US ebola help. He said the US was stepping up. Probably terrified to say anything else.

1. We are the largest single donor to Sudan and just pledged an additional $200Million in February for humanitarian relief.

Now they can’t buy gloves? Does the humanitarian money sent ever reach the ground or is it stolen by their government?

The US it seems is by far the largest donor thus far. Why can’t these guys in interviews just mention exactly what the US has done?

The U.S. boosts Ebola aid to Congo and Uganda to $112M, rushing PPE, tests, and tracing, as violence, shortages, and distrust threaten containment efforts.

“ The United States on Thursday said it is increasing its aid to Congo and Uganda by $80 million, bringing its commitment to more than $112 million since the outbreak.“

2. "Since the outbreak". It was predictable. Health monitors should have been on the ground before it

became such a big epidemic.

3. I think your question, paraphrasing... "Where has the fucking money gone to?"

is the question to be asked. I'm curious too.
